Grand documentOriginal passage from the "Grand document".

'Read in the news paper, with unfeigned and deep concern, an account of the death of the Duke of Devonshire, at Spa, in consequence of his late apoplectic disorder; a Nobleman, who was a Friend to Liberty, & his Country; and to the acts; & who was always singularly courteous to me' (Burnett 2020b, p. 1645)
